Tao Zhenyu had a sneer in his eyes, and said with a cold snort: "Where do you come from so many whys, you can do what you are told to do." You're still a bureau chief, don't you know the rules of secrecy?"

Zhang Tianming's face was ugly to death, he was from the White Tiger Clan, and he knew the importance of confidentiality regulations better than anyone else. Today is just a question of conditioning.

But a mistake is a mistake, and as a former soldier, today's police chief can't find any excuse to refute it. Zhang Tianming had to hand over the relevant materials with a calm face.

The Zhong Family Courtyard is located on the edge of a small stream not far from the foot of Jungnam Mountain. Lush greenery and flowers. There is no bustle of the city, nor is it a modern building of reinforced concrete, but only an antique Tang Dynasty style. Lin Dong looked a little distracted, this is simply a true portrayal of picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and leisurely seeing Nanshan.

A three-storey building with a completely wooden structure, carved beams and painted buildings, dragons and phoenixes are auspicious. Coupled with a small fish pond in front of the door, with the unique scenery here, it is simply a paradise. In particular, the koi fish swimming around are lively and full of spirituality, giving people a feeling of spring breeze and rain.

Zhong Min was a little proud, and said lightly: "How about it, my family is beautiful." This is the ancestral home of my Zhong family, although it has been thousands of years, it is still intact, and ordinary people are not qualified to come here at all. ”

Lin Dong had to admit that this place was indeed beautiful and quiet, giving people a feeling of being far away from the hustle and bustle, and it seemed that even the soul had been invisibly baptized.

Looking at Zhong Min's smug appearance, Shangguan Mingyue was very unhappy, and said lightly: "Isn't it just a country house, what's the big deal, Miss Ben wants as much as she wants." ”

Lin Dong didn't think so, it seemed that every place here was carefully arranged, even a stone had its special function. And he felt an aura that seemed to be nothing, as if this was a huge formation. Once activated, there will be a sea change.

Noticing Lin Dong's expression, Zhong Zhenhai's eyes once again showed a different color. Could it be that the young man had discovered the secret? Not to mention outsiders, even in the entire Zhong family, no one except himself knows the secrets here.

Pushing open the door of the hall, a faint scent of sandalwood came out. Lin Dong sniffed, this is a special sandalwood, one can burn for a day. A huge portrait in the middle hall caught Lin Dong's attention, wasn't that unique appearance his ancestor?

Lin Dong is very strange, the average family worships the position of the prince of heaven and earth. Even if it is a little special, it is either the Taoist Sanqing Patriarch or the Buddhist master of Buddhism. And the portrait of his grandfather appeared here, which is really strange.

Zhong Zhenhai seemed to know everyone's doubts, and explained with a smile: "This is the ancestor. Since my Zhong family does not have an ancestral hall, it has always been enshrined here. ”

Lin Dong knew that Zhong Zhenhai was mainly explaining to Lan Lao, so he just smiled slightly to show his understanding. At the same time, I also understood where my inexplicable good feeling came from, which should be because I had cultivated the same sect and the same origin cultivation method.

Lin Dong didn't expect that his ancestor and descendants were still alive, even his own master had never mentioned it, and what he didn't expect was that he would have entanglements with them. Could it all be providential?

Lin Dong didn't plan to confess his identity now, everything had to wait for him to ask his master before making a decision. He originally planned to go back to the place where he grew up as soon as the college entrance examination was over, but it was delayed because of the matter of the ghost king. Now it seems that he must go back to the mountains to see his master as soon as possible. He had a lot of doubts in his heart and needed answers from Master.

For some reason, Lan Lao looked at this vivid portrait, his face became very serious, and he took the initiative to pay homage. Lin Dong felt that Lan Lao seemed very sincere, and he was definitely not pretentious.

Although Shangguan Mingyue and Chen Yan didn't understand the meaning of this painting, they saw that Lan Lao had visited the shrine, and they also learned to worship. It's just that only they themselves can understand whether they have that sincerity or not.

Lin Dong, as Zhong Kui's descendant of Taoism, saw the portrait of his ancestor and how could he not worship it. So he lit three sandalwood sticks in his hand and bowed, Zhong Zhenhai and Zhong Min on the side of the watch had their eyes wide open, and even Lan Lao was full of doubts.

This kind of bowing ceremony is not qualified for everyone, except for blood relatives, only descendants are eligible. But Lin Dong doesn't occupy anything, why do you want to do this. And he behaved unhurriedly, as if everything was taken for granted.

Lan Tianjian and Zhong Zhenhai are both old foxes who have lived for decades, and they would never think that Lin Dong would do this for no reason. Of course, he wouldn't think that Lin Dong didn't know the rules, and even if he didn't know, he would have learned from the past.

The two old men were human spirits, and they couldn't help but look at Zhong Min. If Lin Dong has a special relationship with her, then everything makes sense.

Zhong Min's face turned red when he was seen by the two old men, his heart beat violently, and he turned around and ran out. It's really embarrassing, what is this guy Lin Dong kneeling for, that's not your ancestor, isn't this intentional to misunderstand. But for some reason, Zhong Min was not only not angry, but a little happy in his heart.

Zhong Min's reaction could not escape the gaze of the two old men, and at the same time he thought of a possibility. Zhong Zhenhai's face was pensive, not knowing what he was thinking. However, Lan Lao glanced at Shangguan Mingyue, and his face showed a trace of sorrow.

Of course, Lin Dong didn't know this, and said very politely: "Elder Zhong, come over at noon now, isn't it ......?"

Zhong Lao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Lunch has already been prepared, please come back to the hall." ”

Chen Yan sneered on her face and said sarcastically: "Foodie ......"

Lin Dong had long been accustomed to Chen Yan's sarcasm and didn't care. But I still thought faintly: When you know the true skills of this son, you won't think so. I just hope you don't get scared silly.

The meal was not shocked, but Zhong Min never appeared again after he left. Zhong Zhenhai asked Lin Dong some background without making a trace.

Lin Dong didn't hide anything at all, and answered whatever he asked. But he didn't say a word about being a Qimen cultivator.

Zhong Zhenhai frowned when he heard this, could it be that his guess was wrong? In his imagination, Lin Dong would definitely not be so ordinary. Otherwise, he would not have been favored by Shangguan Mingyue.

Although he can't be sure of Shangguan Mingyue's true identity, but with the surname Shangguan and a martial arts master like Lan Tianjian with him, there will definitely be no one else except the Yanjing Shangguan family.
